Grab some chalk, bring your creativity, and help us add a little more color to The Real Squeal!

Everyone Is Invited!

This year’s Sidewalk Chalk Art Contest is open to the public!

Students, families, artists, and community members of all ages are invited to grab a sidewalk square and create their own chalk masterpiece in Downtown Lyons during The Real Squeal BBQ & Music Festival.

You don’t have to be a professional artist — this event is all about creativity, community, and having fun!
